Meetings of the Ethologische Gesellschaft

The 5th topical meeting of the Ethologische Gesellschaft

Berlin, 21 - 23 February 2010

The 5th topical meeting of the Ethologische Gesellschaft will be hosted by the Department of Animal Behavior of the Freie Universität Berlin.

The focus of this year’s meeting will be on Animal Communication, a lively and intellectually stimulating dialogue among scientists working on any aspect within this topic.

The scientific program consists of one full and two half-day sessions, each composed of invited plenary speakers, contributed short talks, and poster presentations.

We are looking forward to welcome students and colleagues from near and far in the busy yet relaxed scientific, cultural, and political center that Berlin encompasses today.

13th International Behavioral Ecology Congress

The 2010 conference is an international forum for spreading scientific results about the positive effects of pets on human health. The name of the conference has a double meaning. It symbolizes the increased quality of life experienced by people who want and can be close to an animal, as well as the life-long relationship between humans and animals.

13th International Behavioral Ecology Congress

Perth has a strong and active community of biologists engaged in Behavioral Ecology research. The Centre for Evolutionary Biology at the University of Western Australia, hosts over 25 faculty and research students. The Perth Organising Committee is preparing a stimulating programme with a difference, and the meeting will be memorable for both its social and scientific content.

The Perth Convention Exhibition Centre has been confirmed as the venue for the Congress. The Centre is purpose built and located in the heart of the city. With the Centre’s advanced technical facilities and communications infrastructure as well as first class catering and service, it meets all the requirements needed for an enjoyable and productive working environment.

You will be glad you came to Perth, the most isolated city in the world and Australia’s safest and sunniest.

We look forward to welcoming you and your families to Perth in September 2010 for what promises to be an exciting International Congress with a difference!

4th Conference of the International Society for Gesture Studies (ISGS)

The conference has the following thematic foci: linguistic, semiotic and pragmatic approaches to human gestural communication with a special focus on cognitive linguistic perspectives, possible evolutionary precursors, and neural correlates of gestures. A major goal is to provide a platform to discuss both specific research questions within these areas and interdisciplinary approaches connecting these distinct areas of gesture research.

V. European Conference on Behavioural Biology 

The ECBB is the joint meeting of the European scientific associations focusing on the study of animal behaviour. Representatives of these associations form the Committee of European Societies for Behavioural Biology (CESBB), which oversees the organization of each ECBB. Previous meetings were held in Muenster (2002), Groningen (2004), Belfast (2006), and Dijon (2008). The conference is organised by a local organizing committee headed by Leonida Fusani, who is also coordinating the Scientific Programme toghether with members of the Società Italiana di Etologia (Italian Association for the Study of Animal Behaviour).

5th International Symposium-Workshop on Frugivores and Seed dispersal

After being held in the tropics (Veracruz, Mexico) and sub tropics (Rio Grande do sul, Brazil; Southern Queensland, Australia), FSD2010 will be in the temperates, in a mediterrranean environment, Southern Europe. Because frugivory and seed dispersal is not constrained by latitude, a logo was designed to put emphasis on plants and animals that occur within and outside the tropics. Erin Kuprewicz's logo presents an oak (Quercus sp.) tree, Florida Scrub Jay (Aphelocoma coerulescens), Eurasian Jay (Garrulus glandarius), Agouti (Dasyprocta punctata), Apodemus sp., and Sus scrofa. Note that the light green foliage of the tree matches the Herault map, the dark green being the Mediterranean Sea.

6th Ecology & Behavior meeting 
 

Tours, 12.-16. April 2010

From April 12 to 16, 2010, Tours will welcome the "6th Annual Meeting on Ecology & Behavior". As in previous years, the meeting is organized entirely by doctoral and post-doctoral students. Delegates to the meeting work in various biological disciplines, including behavioral ecology, conservation biology, evolutionary biology, neurobiology and sensory ecology, and physiological and population ecology. These meetings represent a unique opportunity for scientists at all levels, from graduate students to established, senior researchers, to present and exchange ideas and recent findings.

2nd International Berlin Bat Meeting: Bat Biology and Infectious Diseases
 

Berlin, 19-21 February 2010

To foster an exchange of ideas among international specialists working on emerging infectious diseases in bats and/or on bat biology. We are especially keen on crossing disciplinary boundaries and hope that the discussion among scientists from biology, veterinary and human medicine will advance the field substantially. We suggest several exciting topics as sessions or workshops. In addition, we have invited five plenary speakers to review controversial and inspiring developments in the field of bat diseases and their link to bat biology. For details see:
